Add Semantic Versioning starting Version 1.0.1.dev

[MathewBensonCode]

• Bump patch version
• Introduce Semantic Versioning

Should close #518

Observations

• The CMake Project command only accepts integers for the versions. Hence the use of 1.0.1.0 in the project command.
• It appears that the tagging of the Version commits will have to be done on the branches by those with write access as I don't think tag information carries over via pull-requests.
• Therefore creating the Version Change Commits and tags would be the responsibility of the maintainers as would the process of determining the level of change required.

based on the discussion happening here #518, I think it should be 0.2.0

Hey @MathewBensonCode
are you still committed to complete this effort ? it's okay if you can't anymore, I'll need to reassign/re-prioritize it

[MathewBensonCode]

hi @JeanPhilippeKernel, I have not had much time to put into it. I was working on figuring out which approach would work out for all platforms which turns out to not be very trivial.

To not hold you back you can re-assign it for now.

I have been working on something to solve the cross platform issues but will reveal it when I have got it working.

I apologise for the inconvinience.

[JeanPhilippeKernel]

no problem @MathewBensonCode, Will reassign this one then!
we're looking forward to reviewing your next PR :)
